Ever wondered what a day in the life of GIS is like? Recently, a number of employes and visitors had the chance to find out at a GIS Day event hosted by the Information Services Geographic Information Services Division on November 15, 2006. The event was an open house highlighting the many uses of GIS at Kitsap County and showing the power of the geographic information held at the county. Visitors browsed the map gallery, viewed the online map applications, and watched DVD presentations on GIS and geography. The GIS Division showed other Kitsap County employees and the public why GIS is becoming basic information services infrastructure. An introduction to GIS, as well as an intermediate level GIS presentation, were given by Steve Schunzel. Read more and see photos.
